On 20 August 2012 he was signed by Lega Pro Prima Divisione (ex–Serie C1) club AlbinoLeffe in temporary deal, with Matteo Piccinni moved to opposite direction.
Padova did not sign Piccinni outright. AlbinoLeffe also did not excise the option on Diakité.
Diakité returned to Padua in July 2013. He played 7 Serie B games for the second division struggler, which the team relegated to Serie C at the end of season.
